Items Gerome with the jobs -- shot down Democrats going all out.
The American people are desperate what we witness across America in the last several weeks.
Are our citizens taking to the streets.
Born out of frustration.
This is a perfect storm man.
What a perfect storm -- reduced budgets.
Reduced manpower.
Decimated neighborhood and a rising crime.
That is a witch's brew that is a -- year.
For cancer and -- Citi.
So voting their Brothers planned down causing the crime rate to shoot up you know maybe maybe they're right ninety people arrested this week.
Trying to break into my next guest Wisconsin office they were January Republican senator Ron Johnson voted against just don't.
To -- right now.
What do you think senator I do wanna get -- the -- today Europe is but.
About what the vice president particular I -- saying it looks a little fire again.
Autism in the sad fact of matter Nielsen the policies haven't worked.
And you know let's face their policies have certainly been scaring the business community that's why people aren't going to invest -- we are creating jobs.
So and other religious resorting to the child or tired old up.
A scare tactics and hope hoping to get you know Americans to vote for -- November by scaring him it's just it's very sad it's very unfortunate.
But maybe it's resonating -- -- -- come all my guests already that that the president others citing -- With these demonstrators.
Are trying to look at them as the less Tea Party too well.
-- is a way that did to assorted checkmate you what do you say that.
Most certainly -- I understand the demonstrators frustration.
Mean their policies haven't worked and you know what's sad about is this administration is willing to recognize of their policies haven't worked and are willing to reverse course.
But for you know as a job creators is a manufacturer it's pretty obvious to me why the policies aren't working.
When we when you impose.
A one point 75 trillion dollars.
A year cost compliance in terms regulations on businesses.
When you have the highest tax rate in the world on businesses it's not much of a mystery wide global investment isn't coming -- unites states.
You know.
Expanding our economy and in creating jobs is just not a mystery.
What do you make of the fact that among some Democrats particularly the blue dog Democrats.
Who had are unanimous in looking for another way not the president's jobs.
Bill which I guess is does -- and dad.
On the -- pick apart and picked the teachers that they like what have you but a lot of them have been telling me what they favor.
Is a way to bring that money that sit sitting offshore home.
The one and a half two to three dollars -- by giving a temporary tax holiday to businesses how do you feel about that.
I think that's a good idea to me just makes perfect sense if you give people a reduced tax or tax holiday you get the money back here.
For the investor in the economy if you don't do that the money is just gonna stay overseas you're not giving you -- what -- they don't we invested in the.
Out of me and they just to give it back to.
To shareholders or they don't hire on they will much is the criticism what happened last on.
Not that these guys should have been edict to what they do with there.
Their money -- -- otherwise but that that's the criticism.
And that's why the president has had sort of a hands off approach.
We'll -- if the money comes back the US where the businesses reinvested or the senate to their shareholders.
Or you pay their executives spend it -- some -- in some way shape or form those dollars will get recycled back in the economy.
And -- help economic growth it's not going to harm economic growth it as a good chance of of eighty economic growth.
And that in the end is the number one.
Component of the solution we have got to drive our economy forward.
It will without without economic growth -- solve this problem we're not going to be able to create jobs what -- -- your officers who broke in what happened.
-- I wasn't there but it's it's it's people that are highly frustrated that He we they can't find a job and you know.
I understand the frustration so we're more -- -- took to meet with these folks.
But they do have to realize I'm I'm I'm in Washington DC right now not Milwaukee and they got -- -- -- -- -- -- -- standard order they steal -- and white -- did it -- -- -- of my state director offered to bring him up you know.
In groups not is a large group perhaps is relatively small and you willing to sit down talk -- them they had an attorney there they really just want to get arrested.
But again we reached out to these folks I'm happy to meet with anybody yet -- I meet with hundreds constituents.
On a monthly basis and happy to -- with those folks as well aren't senator weird stuff good seeing you again thank you.
